For an auto insurance company, the average cost of collision claims is $500 per year for careful drivers and $3000 per year for
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

option (c) $875 per year

Explanation:

Given;

Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers = $500 per year

Average cost of collision claims for for poor drivers = $3000 per year

Poor drivers known by the company = 15%

thus,

Careful drivers = (100% - 15%) = 85%

Therefore,

Insurance company's breakeven price for the collision insurance  

= (Poor drivers known × Average cost of collision for poor drivers ) +( Careful drivers × Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers)

= 0.15 × $3000 + 0.85 × $500

= $450 + $425

= $875 per year

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) $875 per year

Depletion amount in 2019 = $52.480

Explanation:

The Cost of Quarry (Depletion Base ) = $164000

Estimated Salable Rock (Units Extracted) = 20000 tons

Depletion Rate = Depletion Base /Units Extracted

Depletion Rate for 2018 = 164000/ 20000 = $8.2/ton

Units Extracted in 2018 = 4000 tons

Depletion amount in 2018 = Depletion Rate for 2018 *Units Extracted in 2018

Depletion amount in 2018 = $(8.2*4000) = $32800

In 2019

Depletion Base in 2019 = The Cost of Quarry - Depletion amount in 2018 = 164000-32800 = $131200

Estimated Salable Rock in 2019 (Units Extracted) = 20000 tons

Depletion Rate for 2019 = 131200/ 20000 = $6.56/ton

Units Extracted in 2019 = 8000 tons

Depletion amount in 2019 = $(6.56*8000) = $52480

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Net income for the year = $257,000

Explanation:

Retained earnings for the year= Net income - dividends paid.

Since no dividends were paid, retained earnings for the year = net income for the year. At the end of each accounting period, retained earnings are reported on the balance sheet, and the retained profits for the year are added to the beginning balance of retained earnings, to give a cumulative ending balance of  $2,499,000.

therefore retained earnings for the year = ending retained earnings balance  - beginning retained earnings balance = $2,499,000.-$2,242,000= $257,000.

Net income for the year is  thus =  $257,000 since no dividends were paid.

According to the basic principles of economics, how will the birthrate be affected by policies that reduce the taxes imposed on
labwork [276]

Answer:

This policy will lead to increase in birthrate.

Explanation:

Taxes imposed on individuals with children will be helpful in reducing birthrate, thus, curbing population growth. This is because taxes reduce the disposable income of the individuals. So people will prefer not to have children to earn a higher income.  

When this tax is reduced through some policy, the disposable income of the people would increase. So people now would be able to afford to have children. This will lead to an increase in birth rate and thus population growth.

The level of inventory of a manufactured product has increased by 8,000 units during a period. The following data are also avail
LiRa [457]

Answer:

There will be a difference in the income .

Absorption costing income will be lower as it transfers all the fixed costs to the ending inventory.

Variable costing income will be higher as it does not transfer  the fixed costs to the ending inventory.

The difference will be  of $ 104000

Explanation:

Increase in units 8000                                                              

                                                              Variable       Fixed

Unit manufacturing costs of the period $24.00 $10.00

Unit operating expenses of the period    8.00       3.00

Total Unit Costs                                       $ 32.00    $ 13.00

The net operating income under variable costing for the year will be $ 13* 8000= $ 104000 Lower than the net operating income under  absorption costing.  This is because the all fixed costs will be treated as period cost rather than product costs.

In variable costing the ending inventory will be $104000 lower than the ending inventory under absorption costing  because the fixed costs will not be allocated to products.

Under variable costing, the units in the ending inventory will be costed at $32 each.Under absorption costing, the units in the ending inventory will be costed at $32+ $ 13= $ 45 each.
